Adding an Outlook category

To add an Outlook category in DocketCalendar, you can utilize the application's support for Outlook Categories, allowing you to categorize events for better organization and visibility within your Outlook calendar. The document outlines general capabilities for setting reminders and categories but does not provide a specific step-by-step process for adding an Outlook category directly through DocketCalendar.

In Outlook itself, categories can be added or managed directly within the Outlook application by following these general steps:

  1. Open Outlook: Start by opening your Outlook application.
  2. Go to Calendar: Navigate to the calendar view.
  3. Select an Event: Click on the event you wish to categorize.
  4. Categorize: Look for the "Categorize" option in the toolbar. This is usually found in the event's editing menu or by right-clicking the event.
  5. Choose/Add Category: From the "Categorize" menu, you can select an existing category or create a new one. To create a new category, select "All Categories" and then "New" to define a new category name and color.

For DocketCalendar specifically, when you are creating or editing events, you may have the option to set a category that aligns with your Outlook categories. Once these events are synced to your Outlook calendar, they should reflect the specified category settings. DocketCalendar supports the control of reminders and allows for categorization at the case, trigger, and event level, offering a new level of customization for your calendared events.

However, for detailed instructions tailored to DocketCalendar's latest features and integrations with Outlook, checking the DocketCalendar user guide or contacting support directly would provide the most accurate and up-to-date information.
